Please Stay in Touch with Us

We haven’t had it easy, New York. On top of battling injury, illness, or the loss of a loved one, we withstood devastating visits from Hurricane Sandy and most recently Winter Storm Athena. At Barasch McGarry Salzman & Penson, P.C., we are hoping for safe and swift recoveries for all those affected.

It is important that we stay in touch with our clients during the recent storms. Many in our area have been displaced and we do not want to lose touch with our clients. When possible, please inform us of your temporary or interim contact information so we can continue to update you on your case. There are often time-sensitive issues in personal injury claims, and we want to give as much notice and preparation time as possible for those who need to obtain documents and evidence to secure their claims to ensure these cases move forward swiftly.

We recovered $1.75 million on behalf of two Bronx firefighters injured at an apartment building fire. Because the building lacked proper firestopping in violation of numerous statutory codes, the initial relatively minor fire was allowed to spread uncontrollably into other areas of the building. One fireman injured his neck, back and shoulder when a portion of a ceiling fell on him and the other fireman injured his knee after slipping on debris in a stairwell.

We recovered nearly $4 million for a Bronx firefighter who sustained facial burns while fighting a fire that broke out in a vacant apartment while floor-refinishing work was being performed. Contributing to the settlement were the flooring contractor, the building owner who hired them and the manufacturers of the highly flammable flooring chemicals being used at the time.

After two months of trial in Brooklyn, we recovered nearly $5 million on behalf of twin brothers who were laborers badly burned in a natural gas explosion while they worked side by side to repair a water main break in Coney Island.

How do we begin to thank you for all you have done for us during the past two years? I don't think words exist that can truly express our appreciation and gratitude for all you did for us.

I am writing to express my deepest thanks for the work your law firm performed on my behalf. I am very thankful, not only for the positive outcome, but also for making me realize that there is a law firm that is truly concerned and understands the situations NYC Firefighters encounter on a daily basis. The caring, professional and knowledgeable staff made a difficult situation tolerable.
